INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background of the Study

“Much can be learned about what makes places great by observing successful

markets - and vice versa (Project for Public Spaces, 2005).” Public market was the

center of commercialization especially in municipalities far from the city. It is where the

merchants and vendors meet up. Market had significant especially to the locals since it

is where they can display and sell their crafts and goods. It was a powerful economic

engine in which it creates jobs for the locals and investors who find it difficult to enter

the mainstream economy. It also showcases the community’s unique character and

culture, which also plays an integral part in the Philippine culture and traditions.

Manga is one of the 15 barangays of Tagbilaran City, the smallest of the rural

districts with an area of 117,295.3 hectares. It shares a common border with the

following barangays of De la Paz, Cortes, Tiptip and Ubujan. Located along the coast,

six kilometers away from the city, the place rests on the foot of the scenic Elly Hill. As

told by the elder folks, before the coming of the Spaniards, Manga was already a

flourishing barangay, a trade center where people from coastal places and the

hinterlands would meet to trade their goods. Dry goods, kitchen wares, carpentry tools

and others were traded. Fish, shells and other marine products were bartered with root

crops, cereals and vegetables. Traders who travelled by land used their carts and

sledges to transport their products while those from the coast had to use their bancas.
 According to the record of data of the Manga Barangay archive, years later, with

improved means of transportation, the marketplace was transferred near the present

church in the area occupied by the residence of the late Antero Macalinao. It was called

“Parian,” the Visayan term for trading center. Because of its nearness to the church, it

was again transferred along the highway, in the corner of San Miguel and CPG North

Road in the area occupied by the late Francisco and Ceriaca Sapong. Commodities

were displayed in a 15 by 25 meters market building made of wood and roofed with nipa

thatches by merchants from Baclayon, Maribojoc and Tagbilaran. Constructed along the

highway, the place was accessible to the transportation but again it had to be

transferred to another market site.

After the war, when the residents returned home from their evacuation, the

barangay constituents negotiated for the acquisition of a lot for a market which was later

legally acquired by the Municipal Government. From a wooden building, the market was

renovated, changing the roof to galvanized iron and cementing the posts. A second

renovation was made in 1993 during the mayoralty of Jose V. Torralba. Tiled tables

were provided, and more stalls were made to accommodate more concessionaries.

From its humble beginning, the Manga Public Market has metamorphosed to

become what it is today. Commerce and trade going on in the place is not only confined

in its market center, but practically in the areas along the highway.

With the present situation, it can be stated that the public market is already an

integral part of the Filipino culture and it imposes a sense of neighborhood by bringing

people together. The researchers intended to enlighten and called the attention of the
locals, concerned agencies and the government on the importance of public market.

Through time, this facility has been well used by the residents of the city, leading to its

unconditioned and unmaintained status.

With this, the researchers also intended to come up with a design of a market

with conducive environment, securing the safety and providing to the public, as what

malls and other private commercial establishments provided to the public. Therefore,

the researchers had decided to conduct this research study about Redeveloping the

Manga Public Market, considering its sustainable architectural aspects on planning and

designing. This study would also open a new era of commercialization on the old public

market for more jobs for the locals and investors.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

The whole market complex has a total land area of approximately 1,032sq.

meters and is composed of the main public market, the wet and dry goods annex, and

the market administration office. A wide range of products and services are available in

the market with the presence of different shops offering their specialties the fresh fish

and shells and certain goods. Through time, this facility has been well used by the

residents of the city, leading to its unconditioned and unmaintained status. One of the

products of its present condition is the problem with congested traffic around the

market. Productivity of the city has been decreased with this problem, giving delay to

everyone. Lack of parking areas for the customers and delivery trucks caused

hindrance on the road. Toilets are insufficient to cater the customers, making it

inclusively only for vendors and personnel and inappropriate facilities sacrificed

sanitation.
 There is no proper accessibility for the PWD's; market ramps were too steep for

those PWD's using wheelchairs which may cause harm to them.

1.3 Objectives of the Study

The main aims of this study are to:

1. assess the site of the existing conditions of the Manga public market:

a.) Area
b.) Topography
c.) Location
d.) Accessibility/Utility

2. design a redevelopment plan of the Manga public market by implementing the

appropriate laws and regulations

1.4 The significance of the Study

The researchers believed that the outcome of this study would be beneficial to

the following:

Architects and Engineers: This research may aid them in comprehensive

designing and planning of Public Markets which may enhance their knowledge and

skills in the planning and construction of structures.

Community: Since the implementation and completion of this project will provide

job contingencies to the locals that will further enhance their economy. Through this

study, Mangahanons would have also the initial idea of what their future market could

be. Stallholders will be knowledgeable as well of the rules they need to comply based

on the existing laws.

 Tourists: They would be able to experience the mesmerizing feeling, comfort,

and convenience of the amenities and facilities of a redeveloped Manga public market.

The redevelopment of the existing Manga public market may create a new attraction for

tourists or foreign visitors and get them interested in fresh foods which would create

jobs for the locals.

Local Government Unit (LGU): They can use this study as reference in building

the actual public market and supporting facilities. This will be their new milestone that

will reflect how progressive their city is. The gathered information or data of analyzing,

would serve as written insights of the Public Markets current conditions that would

hopefully help them accurately produce solutions to the perceived problem. It

will also solve their problem about traffic congestion in the central business district and

will organize the busy area of the market.

Environment: This research study considered sustainability and positive

environmental impact thus, promoting ecological awareness. This would also be

beneficial to future generations and the study brings about positive effects on the

environment as it minimizes the damage caused by the construction.

Future Researchers: This study will be a reference to students who are going

to conduct research about public markets. It will lead their chosen topics to being more

realistic because of this existing research that will provide concepts and considerations

in designing a market facility.

1.5 Scope and Limitations

The design focuses on solving the encountered problems on the existing market.

With compliance to the laws related to this government facility, the new plan should

improve the circulation and provide greater convenience to the users. It will also

consider the culture and vision of the city which will reflect on its interior and exterior

design.

The study limits are the increase in profit of the retailers and the analyzations related to

economic field. This study would not include the structural computation, electrical

computation, mechanical computation, and plumbing computation of the

Redevelopment of the Existing Manga Public Market.

1.6 Theoretical Background of the Study

A good market is one that showcases good architecture. In order to had a good

design, a well-planned, safe and a sustainable market, the researchers had to use

these fundamental theories and laws which are connected to this research study.

Figure 1. Theoretical and Conceptual Framework

 “Form ever follows function.” (Louis Sullivan). To have good plans and

sustainable designs for the redevelopment of existing Manga public market, it must be

organized with adequate placement of facilities and zoning of spaces for easy access

by consumers and the general public. Good space planning can improve the well-being

and productivity of the occupants of a space.

The application of this regulation would not only give the construction a

fascinating design, but it would also add relevance to Philippine culture. As Ar.

Francisco Mañosa stated, “Architecture must be true to itself, its land and its

people.” Filipino architectural design reflects the primitive and primordial

traditions of the Philippines. With the help of those modern Filipino and

sustainable design, the researchers aim to give a much comfortable and suitable

design of the market.

Along with churches, convents, schools, and the town hall, the market was one

of these important structures. To buy necessary commodities in a cheaper cost, the

market is the only place where people can go at that time. With the current situation, it

can be stated that the public market is already an integral part of the Filipino culture and

it imposes a sense of neighborhood by bringing people together. As mandated by BP

344, section 1 of Accessibility Law states that:

In order to promote the realization of the rights of disabled persons to

participate fully in the social life and the development of the societies in
which they live and the enjoyment of the opportunities available to other
citizens, no license or per for the construction, repair or renovation of public
and private buildings for public use, educational institutions, airports, sports
and recreation centers and complexes, shopping centers or establishments,
public parking places, work- places, public utilities, shall be granted or issued
unless the owner or operator thereof shall install and incorporate in such
building, establishment, institution or public utility, such architectural facilities
or structural features as shall reasonably enhance the mobility of disabled
persons such as sidewalks, ramps, railings and the like. If feasible, all such
existing buildings, institutions, establishments, or public utilities may be
renovated or altered to enable the disabled persons to have access to them:
Provided, however, That buildings, institutions, establishments, or public
 utilities to be constructed or established for which licenses or permits had
already been issued may comply with the requirements of this law: Provided,
further, That in case of government buildings, street and highways, the
Ministry of Public Works and Highways shall see to it that the same shall be
provided with architectural facilities or structural features for disabled
persons.

In the case of the parking place of any of the above institutions, buildings, or

establishment, or public utilities, the owner or operator shall reserve sufficient and

suitable space for the use of disabled persons.

In addition, as mandated in Rule III of BP 344 – Specific requirements for the

buildings and related structure for Public Use, section 9 states the following:

i. Graphic signs shall be hold and conspicuously installed in every access from
point of entry to connecting destination.
ii. Walkways shall be provided with adequate passageway in accordance with
provision.
iii.Width of corridors and circulation system integrating both and vertical access
to ingress/egress level of the building shall be provided.
iv. Doors and entrances provided herein used as entry points at entrance lobbies
as local points of congregation shall be designed to open easily or accessible
from floor or to any point of destination.
v. washroom and toilets shall be accessible and provided with adequate turning
space.
vi.Ramps shall provide a means of access to level of change going to entry
points and entrances, lobbies influenced by condition of location or use.
vii.Parking areas shall be provided with sufficient space for the disabled persons
to allow easy transfer from car park to ingress/egress levels.
viii. Height above the floor or switches and controls shall be in accordance with
the provisions.
ix. Handrails shall be provided at both sides of ramps.
x. Floors provided for every route of the wheelchair shall be made of nonskid
material.
xi. Floors provided for every route of the wheelchair shall be made of non-skid
material.
xii.Water fountains shall be installed as required. (Refer to Appendix A for the
illustrations of Rules II and III complementing Rule II of the previous
implementing rules and regulations).
 With this, the researchers could design a market with more functional and

convenient access and flow for the PWD’s by following the proper guideline set by the

Accessibility Law of the Philippines (BP 344).

Using these laws, the researchers could create a market with more functional

and convenient access and flow for PWDs by adhering to the proper guidelines

established by the Philippines' Accessibility Law (BP 344).

With the increasing percentage of vehicle ownership in recent times, parking has

become a conflicting and confusing situation for lot of people. The National Building

Code of the Philippines (PD 1096) Rule VII- Table VII. 4 E-2- Public Market states the

following:

One (1) car slot for every 30.00 sq. meters of customer area.

Overcrowding of parking places is one of today's most common issues. Vehicles

continue to outnumber available parking spaces, causing traffic congestion. To avoid

parking concerns, spaces for vehicles must be provided in the market for customers and

vendors to load and unload properly. This is one method of preventing vehicle

obstructions on the road.

In addition, parking spaces for the PWD’s must also be considered. The

Appendix A of the Accessibility Law (BP 344) in B no.1 states that:

1.Parking spaces for the disabled should allow enough space fora person to transfer to a
wheelchair from a vehicle;
2.Accessible parking spaces should be located as close as possible to building entrances or to a
ccessible entrances;
3.Whenever and wherever possible, accessible parking spaces should be perpendicular or to an
angle to the road or circulation aisles;
 4.Accessible parking slots should have a minimum width of 3.70m.

5.A walkway from accessible spaces of 1.20 m. clear width shall be provided between the front
ends of parked cars;
6.Provide dropped curbs or curb cut-outs to the parking level where access walkways are
raised;7.Pavement markings, signs or other means shall be provided to delineate parking spaces
for the handicapped;
8.Parking spaces for the disabled should never be located at ramped or sloping areas.

Disabled parking spaces are an extremely important feature for any car park as it

helps to improve overall accessibility. For people with disabilities, reserved parking

spaces are more than just a convenience. They are necessary for their safety and well-

being, as well as to protect them from further injury and harm.

Proper sanitation promotes health, improves the quality of the environment and

thus, the quality of life in a community. Sanitation was a major issue, particularly in

public places such as the market. To address this problem, Section 901 of the National

Building Code of the Philippines (PD 1096) states that:

Subject to the provisions of Book II of the Civil Code of the Philippines on

Property, Ownership, and its Modification, all buildings hereafter erected,
altered, remodeled, relocated or repaired for human habitation shall be
provided with adequate and potable water supply, plumbing installation,
and suitable wastewater treatment or disposal system, stormwater
drainage, pest and vermin control, noise abatement device, and such
other measures required for the protection and promotion of health of
persons occupying the premises and others living nearby.

For the safety and health of clients, the market needed appropriate amenities as

well as a proper drainage and plumbing system. It also helped to reduce the structure's

negative environmental impact on garbage. In addition, Section 34 of the Code on

Sanitation of the Philippines (PD 856) states that:

 With the help of these laws, the researchers sought to address the problem of

sanitation and facilities on the market to ensure the safety and health of the customers

and vendors using the market.

Safety is another aspect to be considered as The National Fire Code of the

Philippines (RA 9514), Division 2 states that:

A. Every building or structure, new or old, designed for human occupancy shall
be provided with exits sufficient to permit the fast and safe escape 44 of
occupants in case of fire or other emergency. The design of exits and other fire
safety construction shall be such that reliance for safety to life in case of fire or
other emergency will not depend solely on any single fire safety construction.
Additional safeguards shall be provided for life safety in case any single
safeguard is ineffective due to some human or mechanical failure.
B. Every building or structure shall be designed, constructed, equipped,
maintained and operated to avoid danger to the lives and ensure safety of its
occupants from fire, smoke, vapor and fumes, during the period of escape from
the building or structure.
C. Every building or structure shall be provided with exits of kind, number,
location and capacity appropriate to the individual building or structure, with due
regard to the character of the occupancy, the number of persons exposed, the
fire protection available and the height and type of construction of the building or
structure, to afford all occupants convenient facilities for escape.
D. Every exit of buildings or structures shall be arranged and maintained to
provide free and unobstructed egress from all parts thereof at all times. No lock
or fastening device that would prevent escape from the inside of any building
shall be installed except in mental, penal, or correctional institutions where
personnel are continually on duty and effective provisions are made to evacuate
occupants in case of fire or other emergencies.
E. Every exit shall be clearly visible. The route to the exit shall be conspicuously
marked in such a manner that every occupant of a building or structure will
readily

Because the market serves such a big number of people every day, it had to be

safe. One of the components of the building safety strategy was the fire protection

system. Without such a system in place, the lives of those who are within the building

could be jeopardized in the event of a fire. A fire extinguisher, fire hydrant, fire alarm,

sprinkler system, and fire exits will be supplied to avoid an intimidating scenario in the
event of an emergency, and they may be accessible in the event of an emergency. It

may be able to create a more secure and functional market as a result of this.

In addition, ventilation of the market was considered as Rule 8, Section 801 of

the National Building Code of the Philippines (PD 1096) states the following provisions:

(a) Subject to the provisions of the Civil Code of the Philippines on Easements of
Light and View, and to the provisions of this part of the Code, every building shall
be designed, constructed, and equipped to provide adequate light and
ventilation.
(b) All buildings shall face a street or public alley or a private street which has
been duly approved.
(c) No building shall be altered nor arranged so as to reduce the size of any
room or the relative area of windows to less than that provided for buildings
under this

Code, or to create an additional room, unless such additional room conforms to

the requirements of this Code.
(a) No building shall be enlarged so that the dimensions of the required court or
yard would be less than that prescribed for such building.

A public market was a place where people might buy and sell things. Markets

were the first civic centers in our neighborhoods, providing jobs and locations where

people could comfortably come and meet. As the number of people using the market

grows, heat and foul odors accumulate on a daily basis. To avoid this, appropriate

ventilation, particularly natural ventilation, was required to improve sustainability to

provide a more pleasant environment and comfort for those who were inside the market.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

2.1 Introduction

A market's role became inappropriate for those who utilized it as it became older.

Redevelopments are a viable choice for keeping up with the fast-paced economy. As a

result, the market could better fulfill its purpose and compete with other contemporary

commercial facilities.

To have a better practical design, redeveloping a building necessitates a

comprehensive investigation. When it comes to redevelopment, one of the most

important factors to consider is sustainability. It optimizes the usage of renewable

energy while minimizing a structure's negative environmental effect. Using construction

methods and technology that are appropriate for the climate of the nation would have a

positive influence on sustainability.

The relevance of redevelopment in terms of planning and implementing the

appropriate rules and regulations. To stress and clarify on the relevance of redeveloping

the Manga public market, the researchers presented instances of similar studies that

were relevant to this study.

Sustainable Development

"Environmental sustainability" is defined as "development that fulfills current

demands without jeopardizing future generations' capacity to satisfy their own needs,"

according to the Brundtland report. Environmental integrity is an essential factor in

designing new structures or redeveloping old ones. The study discovered that smart

design improves people's lives while minimizing negative effects on the environment.

Future-proofing, decreased operating costs, comfort, and health benefits were all

seen by comers as advantages of more environmentally friendly structures.

Consequently, we define sustainable architecture as a structure that uses efficiency and

moderation in the use of materials, energy, and development space to reduce the

building's negative environmental effects.

Furthermore, according to C. Phillips (2003), "the quality and condition of

landscape and architecture are symptomatic of the status of sustainability in an area."

The researchers aimed to underline the importance of sustainable design regarding

environmental, economic, and community concerns. This strives to ensure appropriate

accessibility, preservation, and well-built, long-lasting structures.

“A nation’s culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people.”, according

to Mahatma Gandhi. As previously said, culture is also critical for a more long-term

structure. Culture reflects society and its people, and the researchers want to utilize

culture as a tool to assist build a more sustainable framework and promote sustainability

and environmental awareness. The researchers would create a market that was not just
a center of commerce but also a place where culture thrived, promoting local culture and the

town.

2.2 Architectural Fundamentals

"All architecture is shelter," Philip Johnson says, "and all great architecture is the

creation of space that holds, hugs exalts or stimulates the people in that place." This

aphorism claimed that the building and its inhabitants must be the same. Because the

building had to communicate via its design and shape, it could provide the residents

with the thrill and comfort they desired.

Furthermore, "a genuinely outstanding piece of architecture must communicate

harmony, simplicity, organic beauty, natural integrity, and beauty," according to Pablo

Antonio. As a result, a structure's look might be significant yet straightforward and

attractive to the sight.

Furthermore, the researchers intended to construct a structural design that could

embrace the culture of Bohol and the Philippines as a whole, as Francisco Bobby

Manosa put it: "Architecture must be authentic to itself, its place, and its people." It was

a structure that was more than simply about design but also incorporated culture to

produce a more meaningful, pleasant, and appropriate framework.

In summary, given these circumstances, a decent design for the planned

Redevelopment of the Existing Manga Public Market would be created, resulting in an

attractive, harmonic, and well-organized circulation of the areas.

2.3 Benefits of a Public Market Development

2.3.1 New Entrepreneurial Opportunities

Public markets have spawned a slew of entrepreneurial possibilities. Many of

them would be chances for vendors and families that were previously excluded from the

mainstream economy, especially women and minorities.

2.3.2 New Jobs

It took a lot of effort to run a public market. They were shown to be one of the

most successful initiatives ever in terms of converting one-time capital assistance into

long- term, well-paying employment. Hundreds of new employments were established at

most Public Markets. Many former workers of the Public Market went on to start their

own market businesses. Employees who work in public markets often earn much more

money and have a longer tenure than those who work in retail.

2.3.3 Providing Citizens with Access to Fresh, Nutritious, and Affordable Foods

Residents have access to fresh, inexpensive, and nutritious meals, which

typically include an assortment of organic items. Customers from all walks of life were

attracted to public marketplaces on purpose.

2.3.4 Public markets promote local control and decision-making while

showcasing and celebrating what makes a community unique and best.

Public markets fostered a feeling of community ownership, pride, and

engagement by providing a "common ground" where people of all ages, classes,

genders, colors, and ethnicities could come together in a pleasant, secure, and vibrant

setting.
 Ethnic meals and festivals, a wide range of music, a plethora of fresh food items,

and a vibrant, colorful atmosphere encourage inhabitants to switch things up in a fun

manner while encouraging them to relax their purse strings. They were able to rebuild

local economies as a result of their efforts.

2.3.5 Increasing the number of local agricultural businesses and products, as well

as their consumption

It would take a lot of effort to run a public market. It has been shown as one of the

most successful initiatives ever in terms of converting one-time capital assistance into

long- term, well-paying employment. Hundreds of new employments are established at

most Public Markets. Many former workers of the Public Market went on to start their

own market businesses. Employees who work in public markets often earn much more

money and have a longer tenure than those who work in retail.

2.3.6 Developing a "clean and green" project that requires just a little investment

in infrastructure and utilities in the surrounding area

Too often, economic development projects that promised hundreds of new

employments were placed in rural regions and necessitated the installation of public

utilities such as power, roads, water, and sewage to the new location. Frequently, "job

creators" want 30-year tax breaks and other economic incentives.

Historically, public marketplaces were often situated in densely populated

locations. They connected to pre-existing utilities. Markets often maintain significant

green outside area for public usage and promote energy efficiency and recycling. Some

new public markets are Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)

certified.
2.3.7 Adding Value to Real Estate Surrounding the Public Market

Public markets have a demonstrated track record of dramatically raising the

value of adjacent real estate and making it more attractive for privately funded retail and

housing development.

Public markets established a "week in and week out experience" that consumers

anticipated rather than the mundane treks to the mall or supermarket - which many

locals dread.

2.3.8 Public markets serve as a hub for addressing pressing public health and

education concerns.

Fresh, nutritious foods were readily accessible in public markets. Customers

were taught on the advantages of eating fresh foods. They directly addressed the

essential issues of childhood and adult obesity, which are severe public health

concerns. Processed food consumption has been linked to obesity, high blood pressure

due to excess fat, sodium, and other factors.

Community health professionals frequently used public markets for health

education, nutritional information, and screenings for diseases such as diabetes, high

blood pressure, asthma, aids prevention education, and so on, because they

concentrated community members in a friendly, non-threatening public space. They

gave out flu vaccines and made health-related announcements, among other things.
2.3.9 Public markets can incubate new successful businesses by creating a

"critical mass" and a new entertainment venue.

Public marketplaces produce tasty, one-of-a-kind enterprises. This was an ideal

setting for incubating new enterprises with owners who lacked expertise but were eager

to put in the effort and show off their personality as well as their goods.

Many start-up enterprises used public markets as a business incubator, receiving

training, micro-lending, and marketing support to help them succeed. They'd also pick

up tips from more experienced sellers in the area.

Cottage industries were able to thrive thanks to public markets, which allowed

them to move out of people's homes and into the marketplace, where they could fulfill

health rules and be exposed to a large number of new clients.

2.3.10 Public markets provide a sense of community ownership, citizen

participation, and pride in what it means to call a place home.

Citizens loved Public markets. The inhabitants of the communities where Public

markets were located had a great sense of pride in “their” Market. By building local trust,

Markets created a “yes we can” attitude that paves the way for future civic endeavors.

2.3.11 Generating Significant New Tourist Traffic

Public markets, when correctly structured, were aimed toward meeting local

needs and exhibiting local goods. This draws a large number of tourists and often

extends the stay of current visitors. Tourists were interested in getting a taste of a

place's real native flavor.

 Because they were real, public marketplaces were successful. Typically, they

developed a new attraction for a variety of visitor types. Public markets were, on

average, the most popular tourist attraction in the towns where they were situated.

2.3.12 Public Markets keep Profits Recirculating within the Local Community

All too frequently, new economic development initiatives provide low-paying

employment while sending profits out of state. Public markets have historically kept

revenues flowing locally in the place where they were generated since all firms were

locally owned and run.

2.4 Building Techniques and Technologies

2.4.1 Space Orientation

In hot areas, space orientation was also a factor to consider. North-facing rooms

have enough natural light for most of the day, although they may need to be shaded to

avoid overheating. Non-livable places were considered for placement on the west side,

where the sun's influence was greatest. Morning sun energy was excellent on the east

side of the structure, but it was colder in the late afternoon. The use of a room was a

significant factor when deciding its location in construction in hot weather.

2.4.2 Building’s Form

In hot climes, architectural courtyard designs helped reduce the influence of solar

radiation from the outside walls by providing a cool, shaded space inside the structure.

It also provided a framework that enhances security and privacy. If the courtyard had a

southern aspect in the winter, it may have passive heat gain on chilly evenings. As a
result, moveable shading devices should always be included in a courtyard for needed

shade.

2.4.3 Building Orientation

The effect of the sun and wind on a construction was considerably impacted by

its orientation. Orienting a building's biggest dimension north and south may

considerably limit its sun exposure. The windows should face the direction of the

prevailing wind to promote cross-ventilation. The north and west sides of the home, in

most cases, give the greatest wind and ventilation. A building's proper orientation would

give tenants with suitable living areas throughout the year, even in extreme weather.

2.4.4 Flooring

It was necessary to avoid heat from flowing through the foundation to create an

efficient energy structure. Concrete slabs were the most common kind of foundation in

designs. Because concrete is an excellent conductor of heat, the foundation was a

substantial source of energy loss, especially at the margins, where up to 80% of heat

loss in a floor slab occurred. Concrete border insulation was a tried and true method of

preventing energy loss. According to recent research, using slab edge insulation may

save up to 13% on energy costs. In warmer areas, slab edge insulation combined with

heat-absorbing materials such as cement, stone, and adobe products may help to make

a structure more energy efficient.

2.4.5 Windows

Windows supplied both natural illumination and ventilation to a structure. Small

windows that reduce heat gain were significant in hot regions, especially on the west

side
of a system. A building's main windows should face north and south for light and

ventilation. Ideally, these windows should have insulated shutters that can be shut

during the day and opened at night. All windows should be shaded as much as

possible. Those facing west and east, in particular, may get approximately five times the

solar heat gain of north-looking windows and more than quadruple that of south-facing

windows. In hot climate building design, window location was critical for balancing

natural light, ventilation, and heat gain.

2.4.6 Continuous Insulation in Hot Climate Building Design

A continuous insulation layer surrounding the building's envelope is required in

hot climate building design. The walls, floors, roofs, windows, skylights, and other

components of an envelope are also included. The air handler and ductwork have to fit

inside the home's thermal envelope as well. Continuous insulation was a great way to

keep a building's envelope safe. Continuous insulation raised the overall insulating

value of the building, reduced temperature variations inside it, thus reducing energy

use.

2.4.7 Roofing

In hot areas, roofs should reflect and release the sun's beams. Highly reflective

roofing materials, such as white metal roofing or white concrete tile roofing, reflect heat

effectively and keep the building's inhabitants comfortable. Roofs in hot areas should

have extensive overhangs, preferably three feet wide or wider, for increased shade. In

hot climes, hipped roofs were ideal because they offered shade on all sides of a home.

In hot regions, construction should be long-lasting and energy-efficient. Building

designs for hot climates should consider the structure's orientation, form, and room

layout.
Continual insulation, window location, and roofing materials are critical design elements

in hot areas. The difficulty of constructing a desirable area was to design an energy-

efficient structure that would keep residents comfortable all year.

2.5 Review of related studies

2.5.1 Paco Market Redevelopment

Paco Public Market was a historic market on the Pasig River's shore, along with

Estero de Paco. It was constructed in 1911 by William Parsons, who designed it in the

revival style architecture goal. After WWII, Paco Market, along with the Pasig River,

became filthy and neglected for many years.

The renovation of Paco Market began with a campaign push called "Kapit Bisig

para sa Ilog Pasig," which designated the rehabilitation of the market as one of its

signature initiatives, recognizing its importance to urban revitalization and sustainability.

The market aims to achieve five primary objectives: The initial objective was to repair

the ancient building while using "green" design techniques for natural and artificial

lighting, cross-ventilation, and water and waste management. The market garbage is

recycled into a cement mixture, which is then turned into concrete pavers and hollow

blocks made with 95% cement and 5% debris from the Estero.

The second purpose was to standardize the booths by size and category, which

would encompass approximately 600 merchants. Around 100 booths will be erected to

market items aimed towards visitors. The third purpose was to create a learning,

healing, and culture-centered activity center.

 This would be accomplished via daily courses on acting, reading, music, and

alternative health care, which cultural groups and nongovernmental organizations would

conduct.

2.5.2 Quinta Market Redevelopment

The Spanish colonial government built the Quinta Market in 1851, the same year

as the Divisoria Market in Tondo. Built with funds bequeathed to the city government of

Manila by businessman and philanthropist Francisco Carriedo in the 18th century, its

construction coincided with the city's industrial growth and trade, as well as the

establishment of new public markets to supplement existing trade venues in both the

city center and its suburbs. Quiapo was a popular location for riverside villas along the

Pasig River at the time, and this was reflected in the market's name, which translates to

"country villa" in Spanish.

 The original market, on the other hand, was shoddily constructed, and it was

severely damaged by an earthquake in 1863, though commercial activity continued

despite the devastation. Félix Rojas, the Philippines' first architect, designed the

market's reconstruction in 1878. Rojas also planned the reconstruction of several other

structures destroyed by the earthquake, including the Santo Domingo Church in

Intramuros. On January 18, 1889, a successor to Rojas, Juan José de las Hervás, drew

up subsequent market plans.

Lieutenant Lytle Brown of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, who was

detailed as the city engineer of Manila at the time, drew up new plans for the market on

December 8, 1900, at the start of American colonization of the Philippines. He oversaw

the construction of a new steel market building for $67,821.29, and Quinta Market

reopened to the public on October 21, 1901. During this time, the market was a popular

wholesale market, especially on Fridays, serving residents of all social classes, and

certain items, such as beef, were more readily available here than in other markets in

the city. The importance of the market was evident in the revenues it generated for the

city government: in 1908, the Quinta and Divisoria markets accounted for 80 percent of

the city's market fee collections.

Although Quinta Market was known for the wide variety of foodstuffs and other

items sold under its roof and in the surrounding area, it had been steadily

overshadowed over the years by the opening of new department stores and other retail

concepts in Makati and Quezon City, as well as the growing congestion in Quiapo due

to overdevelopment. By the 2000s, it had not only devolved into a standard retail

market, but it had also earned a reputation for being damp and filthy, surrounded by

stagnant dirty
water and ambulant fish vendors selling their wares on the street, to the annoyance of

marketgoers. In 2008, the market was renovated and the surrounding area was cleaned up in

preparation for a surprise visit by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Despite improvements

to the structure over the years, the market itself was still generally considered to be

dilapidated, which prompted the city government of Manila to build an entirely new.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

4.1 Introduction

The objectives of this study are to assess and evaluate the existing physical conditions of

Manga public market and design a redevelopment plan by implementing the appropriate laws

and regulations as to redeveloping into an innovative market. This chapter presents the gathered

data that the researchers collected and its interpretation. The aesthetics features of the building

and present condition, are described and carefully organized as the subject of this chapter.

4.2 To assess the site of the existing condition of the Manga Public Market

This covers the assimilation and recording of data regarding the existing physical

condition of Manga Public Market.

Area

The current site is a property of the City of Tagbilaran Local Government Unit

(LGU). It has a total lot area of 1,032 sq. meters.

Topography

Manga is one of the 15 barangays of Tagbilaran City, the smallest of the rural districts

with an area of 117,295.3 hectares. It shares a common border with the following barangays

of De la Paz, Cortes, Tiptip and Ubujan. Located along the coast, six kilometers away from the

city, the place rests on the foot of the scenic Elly Hill.

Figure 4.Topographic Data

Location

The site is located at Barangay Manga, Tagbilaran City, Bohol and serves as the

public market of the barangay.

Accessibility

The public market needs to revitalized due to its current condition where the private

and public vehicles park everywhere due to lack of proper parking areas, where in turn cause

congestion and obstruction of the of the site causing inconvenience to the market goers. Also,

the market is less spacious for the market-goers and vendors. It has also a planning system

and sanitary management causing foul odor and inconvenience due to its lack of

maintenance.

Aesthetically speaking, the building needs to be redeveloped in order to cater the

convenience of the market goers and vendors.

Amidst the current situation of the Public market, it still continues to serve the

consumers and provide their daily necessities. The poor sanitary management and planning

are the issues the current market is currently facing. Furthermore, there is also an inadequate

protection from the weather and space for the vendors and market goers. Since selling
 perishable foods is their main source of income, vendors are ignoring these issues. Some of

them are condemning it but still holding out hope that the authorities will take notice.

4.3 To design a redevelopment plan of Manga Public Market by implementing the

appropriate laws and regulations as to redeveloping into an innovative market.

The design was a decisively planned to be convenient and accessible. Through the

help of the required professionals, the new Manga Public Market will manifest the cultural

background of barangay Manga. The plan is to design a public market that entails the life and

culture of barangay Manga.

The redevelopment will occur on the same site, the orientation of the new public

market is still the same but with enhanced and decisively planned design by following the local

ordinances and codes.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSION, RECOMMENDATIONS

5Introduction

This chapter presents the summary of the study, data findings and conclusion made by

the researchers of the study. This chapter also provides recommendations that is beneficial to

the future researchers and future studies with similar topics.

5.1 Summary of Findings

Based on the study that the researchers undertaken, this research show that there
 is a really need for a well-developed Manga Public Market. In order to accommodate the

problems encountered, a well-design and plan public market is to be provided to aid the

problems of the existing market problem. Thus, our study shows that we can’t cater the need

of a parking space needed for the market as per required by the Code.

5.2 Recommendations

Based on the results of the study, the researchers came up with recommendation together

with the suggestions from experts like architects and engineers. This would also serve as a

reference for future researchers

The researchers identified the following recommendations:

1.Future researchers may find more designs that would suit traditionally.

2. Future researchers may further study about considering offsite parking to cater the

parking space for the market.
